My review and ranking of the Goldeneye N64 music tracks, as composed by Graeme Norgate and Grant Kirkhope. Full musical soundtracks from every level, X tracks, multiplayer maps, watch menu, etc.
Surface 2 is one of my favourite atmospheric tracks I've ever heard. It puts this sense of foreboding into a place you were supposed to be familiar with and makes you question if you really know what you're doing. Sure enough they turn out to be very ready for you this time. I feel like the intent behind Statute was to be this anemic final gasp of the Soviet anthem. Problem is, that intent and the actual execution of it does affect the enjoyability of the track somewhat.
I appreciate that, thank you. Glad you enjoyed! If I do blow up, that’d be cool, but regardless I have fun making them knowing a few people like the content. The algorithm may punish me for all the swearing haha
After I upload anything, I always regret some placements. And you’re right.. Bunker 1 deserved more love than what I gave it. In a sense, every track would be S cause I love the game so much.. but then we wouldn’t have much of a tier list.
Interesting and good list! For me I would put Dam in B, Cradle in A or S, and Frigate in A or S. I wasn't so sure about Statue's placement, until later into the song. I like how Statue starts quite a bit, I was thinking to myself, "gee, it sure sounds like this guy is letting the design of the level influence the placement on the music" BUT THEN it started to get kinda awful and then I realized "OHHH, it pretty much is THAT BAD." I forgot that it just gets worse. Very interesting and odd about Jungle not having the music, but the multiplayer essentially having it instead. I think I may enjoy some of the multiplayer themes about a single tier higher on average than you ranked, but maybe if I listened to them long enough, they might go back down. Because they can get very repetitive. Nice ranking overall!
Love statues music. Sounds communist as fuck lol. Silo is an S for me too with those drum kick! Some of your taste is trippin me out! Getting me angry hahahaha. We have our opinions.
